[QUOTE="new1, post: 598377, member: 48868"] I found this on the page you supplied, it sounds significant.. The Open Firmware Password can be reset and changed by any one of the following: By any administrator user, as designated in the Accounts preferences (or in Server Admin). Via physical access to the inside of the computer. When the computer is started up in Mac OS 9. How could I fix it by having physical access to the inside of the computer? I tried taking it apart a while ago, and all I can do is take off the bottom lid, nothing else seems to be able to open. How would I go about "starting up in mac os 9"? [/QUOTE]
